A scanned print from my trip around the Greek islands in 1996. The cave of the Apocalypse is on the island of Patmos and is claimed to be the location where Saint John the Devine wrote the final chapters of the Bible, the Book of Revelation. Now, once inside the 'cave' even the most devout has to answer a few pertinent questions about this assertion. For a start, were it not for the brick walls now enclosing it, in no way could it be called a cave - more like an overhang, and as for the ledge were the saint was alleged to sleep, well he would have needed a harness to prevent him from rolling down the cliff side!
